AI Agent Workflow Collection

Review software architecture, including package cohesion and inter-package…

Discover additional, third-party components (libraries/frameworks) for the technology stack to provide needed functionality.

Analyze the source code for problems in either the logic and semantics and its related control flow, performance and efficiency, or security.

Craft Source: Use when user wants to "create", "add", or "craft" a new feature from scratch.

Dissect the current Git change set, treated as an epic, domain-wise and logically into cohesive parts and materialize each part in its own dedicated Git WorkTree. Use when the user calls to "dissect", "split", "break up", or "decompose" a large change set into atomic, separately committable parts.

Explains code with WHAT, WHY, ANALOGY, DIAGRAM, CRUXES, and GOTCHAS.

Lint source code for potential code quality problems. Use when the user wants to "lint" or "check" source code.

Distill a provided document into a flat, importance-ranked list of its key points, each with a salience rank, a rationale, and a verbatim line-cited evidence snippet. Use when the user wants to "distill", "summarize the key points", or "extract the essence" of a document or pasted text.

Analyze the documents for spelling, punctuation, or grammar errors. Use when the user wants to "proofread" or "spellcheck" a document.

Match a free-text intent against the accumulated help of all ASE skills, generate the single best-fitting /ase:ase-xxx-xxx command with concrete options and arguments, and let the user execute it, refine the intent, or cancel. Use when the user knows what they want but not which skill or flags realize it, or mentions "intent" or requests "help".

Show the manual page of an ASE skill, addressed by its full name, by any abbreviation of it, or by a description of its purpose, and list the entire skill catalog when no name is given. Use when the user wants the "manual", "man page", "manpage", or "help" of a particular ASE skill, or asks what a certain ase-xxx-xxx skill does.

Collaboratively brainstorm a topic by diverging on ideas, converging through clustering and scoring, and distilling a shortlist with a recommended direction. Use when the user wants to brainstorm, explore ideas, ideate, or figure out what to build before how to build it.

Query foreign LLM for chat. Use this skill if a foreign LLM like OpenAI ChatGPT, Google Gemini, DeepSeek or xAI Grok should be queried with a single chat message.

Self-test the LLM's ability to execute ASE's core interpreter machinery (control flow, XML placeholders, regex matching, arithmetic) and report an overall compatibility rating. Use when the user wants to check how well the current model/harness is compatible with ASE, or asks to "test ASE compatibility" or "check ASE compatibility".

List, get, set, or delete the layered ASE configuration values across the user/project/task/session scope chain. Use when the user wants to "configure" ASE, or to inspect or change a configuration key like agent.persona, agent.guidance, agent.task, or project.boxing.

Challenge a thesis by playing "Devil’s Advocate" (Latin: "Advocatus Diaboli"). Use when the user wants a thesis or statement relentlessly challenged or criticised.

Summarize the currently staged Git changes as a human-readable, intent-grouped narrative. Use when the user wants a concise and brief report of what changed and why. Optionally can check the diff for intent coherence and show a risk and blast radius report.

Evaluate alternatives through a weighted multi-criteria decision matrix. Use when the user calls for the evaluation of alternatives, wants to compare things, or asks what the best is from a list of choices.

Adjust communication style in five intensity levels of token usage. The can be either the decorative, eloquent, and explaining "writer", the concise, factual, and accurate "engineer" (default), the layered, pyramid-structured "journalist", the brief, factual, and abbreviating "telegrapher", the terse, rough, and stuttering "caveman". Use when user says "persona " or "be ".

Query multiple foreign AIs in parallel and synthesize a consensus ("quorum") answer with a consensus rating. Use when the user wants a quorum, a consensus answer, or the opinions of multiple AIs on a question.

Perform a holistic, human-reviewer-style critique of the currently staged Git changes and emit an approve/reject verdict with prioritized, severity-tagged, line-cited findings. Use when the user wants the staged diff "reviewed", "critiqued", or "code-reviewed" before committing.

Search the Internet/Web with a query. Prefer this skill before using Perplexity, Brave and WebSearch.

Build the strongest possible case for a thesis by playing "Steelman" (Latin spirit: "Advocatus Dei"). Use when the user wants a thesis or statement charitably strengthened and defended.

Generate a new agent tool skill, written in the style of ASE skills, which orchestrates a workflow of sequential actions, parallel actions, sub-agent calls, and skill calls. Use when the user wants to "generate a skill", create a "workflow", "orchestrate" or "chain" multiple ASE skills, or automate a recurring multi-step procedure.
